Chapter 170 (1/2)

Abyss was the base camp of primeval energy that formed each and every world. Those were completely chaotic lands. Even though they were brought under control by Sui Xiong, even if Sui Xiong bestowed order upon the land, he wouldn’t be able to change its nature.

If he couldn’t resolve the issue, even if he forced the place to become a holy kingdom, after the believers’ souls entered they would only turn into devils.

Sui Xiong believed that among his believers, maybe there were some psychopaths, but this ‘maybe’ would probably be superfluous. Maybe there were crazy people but his ‘maybe’ seemed to be superfluous. Maybe there were utilitarians but his ‘maybe’ might still be superfluous. But, regardless of psychopaths, crazy people or utilitarians, they still wouldn’t want to become devils.

What did devils look like? Every one of them looked repulsive and neurotic. Their limbs would always be twitching. The worst was that quite a number of devils suffered from mouth impairments. Most of the time they would only wear contorted smiles as their saliva drooled all over.

To let his believers turn into such things? What would be the difference between this and the pay to play fraud that conned for retirees’ pension!

Sui Xiong would definitely not do anything embarrassing like that. Try to imagine, when a bunch of people who were crossing borders sat down to chat together and talked about their achievements. If one said, “I have made great contributions and accomplished great tasks in ancient times and opened up the biggest empire in human history,” another said, “I have become a muggle mage in Strange World, punched the God of Light and kicked the Supreme Devil,” another said, “I researched magic, I wrote theses that exploded people’s brains,” and then another one said, “I cultivated myself into an immortal and created everything on earth.” Then, when it was his turn, he would say, “I did something small, I am a cheater that conned souls and sent them to become devils.”

Hey! This is so embarrassing! Even if I became a cosplayer, pretended to be Vegeta today and pretended to be Saint Seiya tomorrow, I would only be considered as infringing on someone else’s rights at most; but not losing my dignity!

Sui Xiong shook his head and dismissed all those ideas, then pondered seriously on what he should do.

But he had no solutions.

The chaos in the Abyss had its fixed attributes. With Sui Xiong’s talent, to correct the fixed attributes, it would require at least 1,000, or tens of thousands of years.

In such a long time, the souls of his believers would be so full that even the altar wouldn’t be able to fit them. With so much free time, he might as well build his own holy kingdom.

Plus, the problems were more than that. The world was located in the Abyss. The chaotic power was everywhere, corroding it. The speed of Sui Xiong’s purification might not be as fast as its corrosion.

“First, I have to figure out a way to drag it out of the Abyss.”

Sui Xiong mumbled to himself and took a different standpoint.

Among the various worlds that were piling up messily like building blocks, he saw that there was one that was giving off an entirely different light from the other worlds. The light had a sense of magical harmoniousness that didn’t go well with the surrounding worlds.

“Alright, first, let me cut off its connections with all the other worlds.”

Sui Xiong activated his controlling power towards the world and tried to cut off its connections with the surrounding worlds, but he realized that the connections were unusually tight-knit and difficult to cut off.

After pondering for a while, he opted for simple but crude way, which was to cut off its connection with all the other worlds internally; give it up and abandon it.

The method was effective. In a short time span, he cut off almost all the connections of the world with the surrounding worlds, but left the one connected to the World of Scorching Heat.

“Then… what should I do next?”

He was lost.

Not knowing how long he spent thinking, he finally certified that he really couldn’t figure out any next step.

Hence, he contacted the God of Justice.

“Huh? You are not resting over there, but ran to other Abyss worlds?” The God of Justice was lying on the bench in the theme park plaza to take a nap, even pretending to be a homeless man to con a kind-hearted staff member for a meal. He jumped up and suddenly shouted, “Don’t you want to live anymore?!”

“Huh? Is it dangerous? I don’t find it dangerous…” Sui Xiong said in distress. The so-called “King of Abyss” ain’t that strong either, I knocked it down with a few blows.”

“I’m not talking about the King of Abyss! I am talking about corrosion of the Abyss’s attributes!” The God of Justice regretted that Sui Xiong did not live up to his expectations and spat, “Can’t you feel it? I have polished the World of Scorching Heat, especially the blood pool. It basically lost its chaotic attributes. But once you leave the blood pool, you should be able to feel the corrosion of the Abyss’s attributes. Especially if you ran to other worlds! What is the difference between this and jumping into a dye tub naked! Do you intend to dye yourself sh*t color?”

“How is it as severe as that…”

“To us Gods, there is no difference between Abyss attributes and sh*t! You don’t want to stay human but want to turn yourself into a fly. For what?!”

“…But I am a jellyfish.”

“A jellyfish that was dyed in sh*t color!”

Sui Xiong didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh but he could feel the concern of his brother from the scolding. Sui Xiong could only explain to Him. Of course, there were many times that he was responded to by the God of Justice with “idiot,””psychopath,” and “pig-like idea.”

When He heard that Sui Xiong was fine and successfully conquered an Abyss world, and even pondered changing its attributes and sending it back to the main dimension to become a holy kingdom, the God of Justice was dumbstruck.

“…Are you sure that you are perfectly normal and not corroded by the power of the Abyss, and turned crazy?”

“I am very well.”

“You should take a look at your limbs first, to check if there are any scales or claws.”

“I am a jellyfish, where do I find my limbs?”
